Our 5yo learned how to write the word “poop” and has been going around handing out “Poop Tickets” (pieces of paper with the word “POOP” written on them) to people.
All that to say… y’all keep an eye out for my parenting book, releasing Spring 2023.
I’m solo parenting for a couple of days while Rebecca is on a work trip. Currently cooking a pot of macaroni, sipping a Coke Zero, and watching my sons brawl on the trampoline in the backyard. Pretty sure the young one just clawed the older one’s eyes. 🤷🏼♂️
Also, I felt a little uncomfortable at how close Lyle was getting to the protagonist’s mom. At one point, I leaned over to my wife and said, “Is this kid gonna end up with a crocodile for a stepdad? What is going on here?” I mean, they even played Twister.
There were farting crocodiles and a cat with diarrhea. The plot was very dense, and I might’ve missed a few key points due to bathroom breaks, but it was surprisingly Keynesian in its economic viewpoint.
This book is one of the most moving things I have read in years. Phenomenal.
Thank you @BethMooreLPM for recommending it.
I wish I had read it sooner and I wish I could read it again for the first time.
Today is our 14th anniversary. @leburrus gave us a can opener that day with a note to the effect of, “Every time you use this, think of me.” We still have that can opener, and we still think of him every time we use it.
One of the best decisions we made re: the ceremony itself was asking Gene to play the piano. We still love watching the video, and now we get to share it with our kids and remind them that this exquisite man is the reason they get to eat baked beans.
This weekend I used a pencil eraser to make a Cross pen refill work inside a Lamy Safari body, and I was so proud of myself. What I’m saying is that I know what Tom Hanks’ character felt like in Castaway.
